Hello John,
Join us for the first webinar in our Summer Series entitled "Civic Conversations: Teaching Race, Religion, & Politics". I will join Dr. Anika Prather next Thursday, June 15 at 3 p.m. ET to explore our first topic, Teaching Race in the Classroom. Dr. Prather is a former classroom teacher and is currently co-authoring a book on the Black Classical Tradition. She has a special interest in showing how Classical studies can be used to bring racial healing. Join us for this can't miss conversation!
